Iroquois

Writing in the city of Plymouth, NH where I study in this coming academic year. This town is calm, mountains are wild, and people are good. Right before starting my program, I'm having times to prepare for my new life, get used to this new environment, and think my future. When I see my future, America is irreplaceable country. SO FAR, here is where I live, work, and have my family(If I could though...)

Do you know Iroquois?(I hope all Americans know them.)  I read about their story in this slow days. They are native Americans, but US people shouldn't simply understand them just people who used to live in where you are now.

They are basically Mongoloids around in Israel, and their journey to America took more than a thousand years !! They crossed the Eurasia continent and Bering Strait before it sunk. They finally succeeded to go south of America. From the beginning to the end, they had daily discussion in every single night for surviving. Around a fire in the night, they kept discussing where they should go and what they should do everyday. And here is what I want to say. Before their discussion, everyone swears that they speak up with an idea of how their decisions affect their descendants in 7 generations later from theirs.

This daily work of them developed into the Iroquois federation which finally became the foundation model of the US congress system later on. But, what about people in the US congress now? I bet no one who is reading it thinks that they care about even us. What about me? Did I ever think of them? Did I ever do for them? I'm already more than enough to take care of myself...

"Be personally and socially brave to make changes which is something not only for us, but for future." and "Be responsible for me, you, others, and THEM"(I now named this kind of responsibility "4D responsibility"!!)  are what I severely felt from the story...


Well, I have to go back to my reading now.
Studying here makes my future more sure so their future will be more sure:)

Go for it. Chuji.
